      Cruz thinks a) Trump will win & he'll run in 2024 after awesome Trump terms? Can't run in 2020 if Trump wins. b) Trump will lose (?!?) c) ?? https://twitter.com/MatthewNussbaum/status/779386269172428801 …

      This election has a semester's worth of case studies for a game theory class. (Most examples are fails, from the 17-person primary on).

      c)... Cruz takes the stage, redoes his convention talk & plays Rick Astley, . Only scenario to his advantage if he is staying in politics.

      a) Trump win: Trumpified party will never take to Cruz, not because of his views because Cruz endorsed guy who insulted his wife and father.

      b) Trump loss: Squandered his chance to say I told you so by late-stage craven endorsement. (Unless preceded by Trump apolog—hahahahaaha).

      Does anyone have a Cruz endorsement explanation that makes sense? We want to dismiss this as politics as usual but it's not. This is weird.

      Cruz endorsing now (after what he did at the convention) feels so weird that I honestly cannot rule out blackmail/dirt—or something absurd?!

          @ncweaver needs to get closer before can get a knife in? i.e. Placates Trumpists, GoP finally dumps trump, cruz in just right place?

          i think it is simple sycophantism. power is coalescing around Trump and Cruz desperately wants to be at or near the table.

          This is absurd. I fail to see upside for Cruz's burning ambitions that have defined him his whole political life. ?!https://twitter.com/allahpundit/status/779403395442454528 …

          . @zeynep Maybe it's not about Cruz or his own future. Maybe (like many) he finds idea of Pres. Trump disgusting, Pres. Hillary terrifying.
